The current keyhole implementation is already using google maps api. My suggestion was to get a larger sample for the map of committers using the location field of their GitHub acount, that way we would only gather publicly available data (anyone that has chosen to not show their location on GH would be omiitted since they probably wishes it to be so) The geocoding api in google maps can be used to convert the location field to long,lat. Using an ldap field would be less practical since that would be needed to be populated by those who has an account and that would be less likely to happen or not updated, less accounts to keep track of imho.
Gathering only the committers would still be a larger sample than what we have today. But its just a suggestion if anyone was thinking of hacking anything like that together ;) /B On Tue, Sep 22, 2015 at 12:17 AM, Kanstantsin Shautsou < [email protected]> wrote: > > > On Friday, September 18, 2015 at 11:02:52 AM UTC+3, Robert Sandell wrote: >> >> https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/geocoding/intro >> https://developer.github.com/v3/orgs/members/ >> https://developer.github.com/v3/users/ >> >> ;) >> > Could you explain what do you mean?
